AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth 

Even this "supertax" that is being discussed is only for one year. As in twelve months. The strong reaction to mild change again provides us with an opportunity to see how selfish the bankers are. It’s always all about them and to hell with the rest. Reading about this reminds me of a good friend who ran a hedge fund until the bubble burst. He had to shut down the fund and close his business. Today he’s working as a trader for a large firm, so yes, a step down in many ways. It’s no longer his own business and indeed, he’s making much less money. But guess what? It’s a job that pays the bills and he’s damned happy to have it.

Listening to this banker outrage (including the clowns at AIG who want to leave) is similar to listening to the the other right wing loons who go crazy anytime change is suggested. It’s completely manufactured outrage, so don’t believe them for a second. Lying is simply what they do.
